From 4afc41dfa5a716e9e7a90c22972583f337c0bcbf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2020 00:52:43 +0200 Subject: netfilter: conntrack: remove ignore stats This counter increments when nf_conntrack_in sees a packet that already has a conntrack attached or when the packet is marked as UNTRACKED. Neither is an error. The former is normal for loopback traffic. The second happens for certain ICMPv6 packets or when nftables/ip(6)tables rules are in place. In case someone needs to count UNTRACKED packets, or packets that are marked as untracked before conntrack_in this can be done with both nftables and ip(6)tables rules.

We increment this even when a clash got resolved, so it might not indicate a problem. Add a dedicated counter for clash resolution and only increment insert_failed if a clash cannot be resolved. For the old /proc interface, export this in place of an older stat that got removed a while back. For ctnetlink, export this with a new attribute. Also correct an outdated comment that implies we add a duplicate tuple -- we only add the (unique) reply direction.
